I take journalist perspectives on technology trends as an anti-signal. They usually don't know what they're talking about, which is why they are journalists rather than technologists.

I remember thinking when I graduated high school the college doesn't matter because knowledge is knowledge, so unless it's MIT who cares? How idealistically wrong. Your college affects initial conditions, and life being the chaot

They could have had the vision to lock down the rights earlier. Raiders of the Lost Ark was already a hit. It wouldn't take much to conjecture an alien movie by the same director would hit.

I worked at a place where you were ranked and promoted based on how much of your life you were willing to sacrifice to clean up management schedule estimate fuckups and bad technology choices.

I get the mental image of a wannabe Steve Jobs loudmouth running rampant without the slightest hint that he's building a fucking thermostat and he's really not that consequential in the grand scheme of things.

The less the cognitive requirement of your day job, the greater the mental surplus you have to work on something else at the same time.

The reason why enrollment is so high is because of the shortage Or because they hear politicians on TV without the slightest clue telling people there is a shortage. Or because they enjoy building things. Not so black and white, is it?

A lot of it comes down to exercise and diet. Skipping breakfast after a night of drinking can lead to a low level of blood sugar; this gets worse as we age and has the effect of depression. You have to closely monitor your blood sugar level

Just keeping it 100: if you come up with a really good idea, (orthogonal to the companies business) that can make a lot of money in 20% time and give it back to your company rather than starting your own shit with it, you're stupid. O
